A nickel will get you on the subway, but garlic will get you a seat. |
| Old New York Proverb |
“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it." |

| Spanish Proverb |
Skin the leg of lamb and trim away all the outside fat and as much
of the fat lying between the muscle tissue that you can reach. Score
the flesh deeply with a criss-cross pattern and stuff the slits with
the tarragon. Rub the meat with the oil and cover with the onion.
Place in a suitable dish for marinating and pour over the white wine.
Add a little salt and pepper and leave to marinate for about 2 hours
in a cool place, basting occasionally. Roast the lamb with the
marinade, basting it frequently, in a warm oven 325 deg F until done.
About 10 minutes before the meat is cooked, pour off the marinade
and meat juices into a saucepan. Reduce the gravy to half its
original quantity by boiling vigorously. Carve the meat into thin
slices and add the resulting juices to the marinade. Arrange the meat
on a serving dish and keep warm. Remove the gravy from the heat,
stir in cream and carefully re- heat the sauce until it forms a
medium-thick consistency. Pour the sauce over the lamb and keep warm.
